What symptoms do you experience with the casin sensitivity? I think I have a casin intorlerance or sensitivity as whenever I have milk I get bloating and my stomatch hurts a little and I feel like throwing up.

Thanks!

I had the same symptoms as gluten. I kept thinking I was getting cc or something. Brain fog, diarrhea, bloating (in fact, my fingers are smaller now that I'm off dairy), constipation.

I get sinus congestion (and every cold turns into a sinus infection), constipation, bloating, gas and excruciating intestinal pains which come in waves and feel like severe menstrual cramps.

DITTO!!! And since going gluten/casein free haven't had a sinus infection. I still get the intestinal pains but not nearly as much, but then I'm not really careful about cross-contamination on the casein side...gluten yes, but not casein so much.

I get more or less the same symptoms as from gluten. Yours could also be from just lactose, milk sugar. You could try some milk with Lactaid and see if you still get symptoms.

What exactly is casein? It seems to be lactose related?? I have been having many of these symptoms too. Is this something else to get tested for or is it a trial and error thing?

Thanks!!

Casein is the main protein in cow's milk. Lactose is milk sugar. While you can have a dairy product with no lactose - like a hard, aged cheese - or with no casein - clarified butter - generally they have both in them.

Give dairy up for a week to see how you feel. Even if you have yourself tested and come up negative, you may still find heath improvements from eliminating it from your diet. It's what makes you healthier that matters, not some numbers on a sheet.

I get diarrhea, start vomiting, shaking and then start to have trouble breathing. I have to take benadryl and ant-inausea medication to make it stop. If I don't it lasts 6 hours. :(

Take care,

June :lol:

basically they can be the same as if you have been glutend, well they are for me anyway. the D is a bad one for me, although when i get glutend i tend to suffer with C which is strange. i suffer with the D and C when glutend but more C when glutend

For me, constipation and brain fog. For me, brain fog was not caused by gluten...but dairy. I've confirmed this several times. Accidentally had dairy last week :( and the brain fog returned like clockwork.

I would get painful bloating and waves of nausea + soft stools almost exactly 2 hrs after ingesting dairy. I kept thinking I was getting 'gluten poisoning', too. Going off dairy made a HUGE difference.

To test if casein or lactose, I fould some gluten-free and soy-free 'cheese' (I think from galaxy nutritional foods; rice shreds). It happened to list casein right in the ingredients, but claimed to be almost totally lactose-fee.

Hope you figure it out soon.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Outgrow celiac?

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.
